Detectives have named a man they wish to trace in connection with the death of a father-of-seven, found collapsed in a front garden in Coventry.

Alan Conneely, 35, was discovered with serious injuries in Priors Harnall, a road in Hillfields, on the evening of Friday July 4 this year.

Mr Conneely, who lived locally, died in hospital four days later.

West Midlands Police want to trace 36-year-old Darren Wayne Bakewell, who uses the alias Darren Wayne Brown, in connection with their ongoing inquiries.

He is described as white, 6ft 1ins, well-built, with fair to ginger shoulder-length hair, and a goatee beard.

He has links with Coventry, Rugby, Nuneaton and Bedworth and is thought to frequent the Warwickshire area.

Police are urging anyone with information to contact police and not approach Mr Bakewell.

A force spokesman said a 31-year-old man and 20-year-old woman, from the Stoke area of Coventry, had been charged with Mr Conneely's murder earlier this year and were due to appear at Warwick Crown Court on October 27.
